In the last 2 decades, Mary has also been editing, associate-producing and consulting with fiction and documentary filmmakers all over the world. Some of the directors she worked with include Tiffany Hsiung, Michka Säal and Lixin Fan in Canada, Seren Yüce and Hüseyin Karabey in Turkey, Nicole Shafer in South Africa, Du Haibin, Lina Yang in mainland China, and Adam Wong, Jessie Tsang, Amos Wong and Ann Hui in Hong Kong.
